Place was okay, its the street floor of a house. Everything was in perfect condition and the heating worked very well. Sr. Cesare and Donna Adele were very helpful, cleaned up the place and change sheets once a week, and spoiled me with cakes and what not. Many thanks for that. The only downside was lacking a proper bed, using instead a sofaconvertible which, in practice, means you neither have a bed nor a sofá. So it might work for you if its a couple of days but for an extended use you better look elsewhere. If I may, my suggestion to the owner is to buy a proper bed and move the sofá to the front. A good sleep is paramount in the hosting business.

Nice property in a good location in Vinci. All expected facilities were provided and Chiara was helpful and available if needed. Vinci was a good place to stay with a number of good restaurants, bars, local shops etc. Would recommend and we enjoyed our stay.

The apartment was greatly located and very nice, pretty cool to be honest. However, some of the reasons why we chose it were laundry and WiFi availability, but there was no laundry and the WiFi is only accessible to those with an Italian phone number, which we did not have.

I'm giving five stars out of five for this place and host. Emanuele is very responsive and welcomming. Apartment at our stay was just renovated, fresh and clean, containing everething you need at home: from washing machine to corkscrew. Vinci is absolutely lovely town to stay, and Emanuele's apatments are at the heart of it: just behind the Museo Leonardiano and the Santa Croche curch, the presumable place, where Leonardo was baptised. The landscape from the window inspired us every morning. It takes less than a hour to go by car to Florence or Pisa. So you can combine the visits to the world heritage places with quiet country life. Would like to come and stay here once again.

Andrea and Laura are very friendly. The room is clean and comfortable. You can swim in the pool. The house is in a small village on the hill with a nice natural view. You can enjoy a quite relaxed stay.

The place is lovely, and restful. A good spot to visit northern Tuscany. Andrea and Laura are super friendly and welcoming, and I loved chilling in the garden or the pool.

We had a wonderful stay at Lisa's Mansarda Apartment. Both Lisa and Chiara are great hosts. They were there if we had any questions or just to have a nice chat and get information about the area. The views are breathtaking and it is a nice short walk through olive groves to the center of Vinci. The swimming pool offers a perfect refreshment after exploring Tuscany. Also their own organic olive oil is just amazing. Definitely recommended! Thank you, dear Lisa & Chiara!

My boyfriend and I had an amazing time in Vinci! The apartment is plenty big with beautiful views of the town of Vinci. It feels secluded but it's walkable to the town by a path near the donkeys. Chiara greeted us with a sampling of delicious olive oil and bottle of wine! The best view is from the toilet :) Thank you for everything!

ENG: Chiara is a wonderful host and her home was just perfect. She was incredibly welcoming and even had the fridge stocked with food and drink, and there were fresh fruits and veggies also waiting for us, all local. Wow. The house is beautiful and the surrounding area picturesque. The details make it homely and spacious, and everything was super-clean. Thanks! IT: Fantastico davvero, siamo stati strabene, la casa è perfetta. Straraccomandabile e Chiara è una host fantastica. Grazie mille!

If you visit Florence, hiring a car, you have to try this property. It is spacious, neatly furnished, nice and clean property. Arriving late in the evening with empty stomach, we were provided foods and drinks by the father of the host. He was so sweet. The host is also kind and communicative. It was her grandparents’ house and she did the wall and other interior by herself in a very professional manner. I thoroughly enjoyed the stay. I definitely stay there next time.

Chiara welcomed us when we arrived, gave us full information about the house, couple of hints what is worth to see in Vinci. It's our first experience with accomodation booking over Air b'n'b and Casa Ripalta has set such a high standard!!! To put in a nut shell what is mutual opinion about Chiara & Casa Ripalti of all travellers on this vacation (4 adults & 4 kids): we're definitely going to come back again - only we can hope that Chiara will accept us :-). Definitely, I would recommend this accomodation for people visiting Tuscany: Florence is approximately 40 minutes drive away, Siena - 70, Pisa - one hour.

This is my second stay with Tania, and I think that she is of the most kind and considerate person I have ever met. She goes out of her way to make you feel at home, and I feel incredibly lucky to have this experience. The room was clean and comfortable, and I had a good night sleep. Jim da Beagle put on a show walking on his hind legs and Misha da Labrador is a kind older gentleman who enjoys his little walk.

It has been absolutely fantastic to stay at Tania's. She is such a lovely host and makes you feel very welcome in her beautiful home (thanks so much for that:) ). And she has very friendly dogs. The location is surrounded by a beautiful tuscan landscape, which makes it perfect for people who want to get away from the hectical city life. I would definitly reccomend it to everyone!

The slogan "my house is your house" is a perfect description for Tania's home. She is very kind, always helpful. The house is on the top of a hill, calm and has a feeling of history. The room is clean and has a private bath. You can reach easy Florence, Lucca, Pisa, and the sea. Car or Motorbike is needed, and you can park next to the house.

Restored farmhouse nestled in the green hills of Vinci country of great genius Leonardo da Vinci is just 1 Km da Vinci are close to the city of "art as Florence-Pisa and Lucca-Siena also seaside cities such as Pisa and Livorno.

Each room has its own bathroom.

The tranquility of the countryside we offer the landscape surrounded by olive trees and vineyards.

The particularly good location for exploring Tuscany. (Florence, Pisa, Lucca, Pistoia and if you still manage it Siena) Very friendly resident and staff of Francesco. As well as the lovingly equipped facility.

If you are looking to relax in the Tuscan countryside in an incredibly clean, relaxing environment with a great breakfast and beautiful pool, then this is the place for you. My wife, kids, and I had a tremendous stay. The town of Vinci is close enough for shopping, dinner, etc., but you won't want to leave the grounds, which feature olive tree groves and vineyards as far as the eye can see.
